Price Action and Structure

A sharp bearish breakdown below 0.03911 in the early hours set up a key support level at 0.03871, which held through multiple tests. From there, price recovered in a series of higher lows and higher highs, forming a bullish ascending pattern into 0.04021.

A doji near 0.04007 at 13:45 ET and another near 0.04025 at 15:30 ET suggest short-term indecision.

Momentum and Indicators

MACD crossed above the signal line in the 8–10 AM ET window, confirming the morning rally. RSI reached 65–70 in the final 3 hours, indicating overbought conditions. The fast 20-period and 50-period moving averages on the 5-min chart crossed bullish in the late morning, but the 50-period line remains above the 20-period, indicating medium-term caution.

Volatility and Fibonacci

Bollinger Bands tightened between 1:00–4:00 AM ET and expanded during the 5–10 AM ET rally. Price traded near the upper band in the final 3 hours, a sign of rising volatility. Fibonacci levels from the 0.03835–0.04077 swing highlight 0.03974 (38.2%) and 0.03915 (61.8%) as potential turning points.

Looking ahead, a break above 0.04077 may trigger a test of 0.041–0.0415, while a retest of 0.03871 could validate its strength. Investors should watch for confirmation of a bullish continuation or a potential reversal on the 1-hour chart. As always, market conditions could shift quickly if broader crypto sentiment changes.
